Good Morning Scouts and Parents I found both the leader's guide and parent's guide. I attached both. I haven't read them in detail but these documents are extremely important for your success at camp. There is a bit of redundancy. However, I find they are both useful. If you have any questions call me and I will do my best to find the answer for you or a person who can answer your questions. Looks like a lot of fun. Early bird fees are due no later than May 15, so this is very important to pay tonight or make arrangements with Mr. Puterbaugh as soon as you are able prior to the deadline.
